MEMORIAL TODAY IS CANCELLED. - the service is re-scheduled for next Saturday, February 13 at 1pm. Moondog’s Tribute is also rescheduled for next Saturday.

A memorial service will be held  for Warren King by his family at  the H.P. Brandt Funeral Home on Perry Highway on Saturday at 1:00 pm.

His blues fans and friends are being asked to attend “a music memorial tribute” for Warren at Moondog’s in Blawnox from 3pm-8pm on Saturday.  Moondog has graciously offered his club for the tribute. Norm Nardini has been busy organizing fellow blues musician to honor Warren King’s memory with an afternoon of  music.

Ron Essor, a.k.a. Moondog, will be providing items such as hot sausage or meatballs, kolbassi and kraut and macaroni salad. In trying to do our part for the tribute, we are asking that those who will be attending the tribute to bring simple food items. This is not mandetory but would be appreciated. Simple, easy items are being requested: cookies, vegetable trays, casseroles, desserts, etc. Please do not bring anything in crockpots that will need to be plugged in.

Sodas will be provided for the small fee of $.50. The bar will also be open. Beers will be available for $3. After the basic costs of the beverages have been covered, the proceeds from the beverage sales will be donated to the Cancer foundation at the request of the Warren King family.
